5.3.1. Switching the pump on and off
The Carum is switched on by pressing the on / off button once.
The display starts with the Welcome page. To switch the Carum off,
press the on / off button again.
5.3.2. Stimulation mode – Orange background
When it is switched on, the Carum starts automatically in the stimulation
mode (orange background) with a rapid cycle and a slight vacuum. This
mode stimulates the let-down reflex. The automatic setting imitates the
natural behavior of the baby. At the start of breastfeeding, babies suckle
with rapid sucking movements and low suction strength which triggers
the flow of breast milk.
The stimulation mode lasts for two minutes and then switches
automatically to the expression mode.
The vacuum and the cycles can be increased or reduced by pressing the
buttons repeatedly or holding them down. The selected settings are
shown using bars. Adjust the vacuum and / or cycle so that you feel
comfortable.
